Weigela Blooms
May is a wonderful month for flowers in bloom here in Pennsylvania. I try to grab my camera and capture all of the blooms before they are gone until next year. Ticks are the only things that make me hesitate before charging into the garden to get a great photo. Is there really any reason for ticks to exist? Other than to gross me out….. This week the weigela are in bloom. The flowers are like miniature trumpets of pink. I just love the leaves on the 2 – 4 photos. Eventually they will be featured in future paintings. Enjoy!
The above Weigela is the Wine and Roses variety
Aren't those leaves fantastic?! They look like I took a paintbrush to them.
This weigela is the Verigated Weigela
Gorgeous! I like the flowers and loove the leaves. I don't have any of these but hmmm.I have been flower crazy lately too..there are just so many pretties out there now!
Thank you! These are such easy care shrubs — a good amount of sunlight and a little pruning once a year. I just love their flowers. They’re worth dealing with ticks to get the photos! : -)
Those photos are stunning! 🙂
So gorgeous!
Although I know there are ticks around, they are not a big problem here. I am definitely grossed out about them though. They are more prevalent in the area my daughter lives.
Thanks for visiting my blog!! Those flowers are gorgeous and really great sources of inspiration. 🙂
